# The first WSOP was in 1970, but the seeds were planted back in 1949 when a Greek tycoon by the name of Nicholas Dandolos, known as "Nick the Greek" asked Benny Binion to hold a tournament for all to see. Binion asked the legend Johnny Moss to come and compete, and five months later the match finally ended, with Dandolos uttering the famous phrase "Mr. Moss, I have to let you go" before retiring to his room. It is estimated that Moss took home a then-unprecedented $2 million prize.

# The first WSOP in 1970 was also won by Moss, but not by elimination. It was an election based on play that awarded Moss the first-ever title.

# In 1971 came the first elimination-style tournament that is still used today.

# Amateurs who had either started on the internet or never won a major tournament seem to have lady luck on their side in the Main Event- Chris Moneymaker became the poster boy for such players in 2003, who continue to find success on the circuit today.

Party Poker är världens största onlinepokerrum. Under de mest besökta timmarna spelar över 55 000 spelare i detta rum. Inget annat online pokerrum kommer i närheten av dessa besökssiffror.

Du kan enkelt ladda ned och spela Texas Hold'em, Omaha och alla dina favoriter...Vare sig du tävlar för ett par hundra eller ett par hundra tusen spänn, så finns det knappt något som matchar känslan när du vinner över någon och kammar själv hem hela storvinsten!

Party Poker erbjuder två typer av turneringar:

Schemalagda turneringar: Dessa turneringar har fasta starttider och är förannonserade. Om du vill delta i dessa turneringar måste du registrera dig innan registreringen stängs (detta varierar från turnering till turnering men annonseras alltid i Lobby).

Sit & Go-turneringar: Dessa turneringar finns tillgängliga dygnet runt, 7 dagar i veckan. De startar så fort tillräckligt många spelare har satt sig vid bordet.

Vi hjälper dig även att förstå reglerna och turneringarna.

En-wikipedia-org/wiki/Poker

Have you ever read the wikipedia version of Poker? It's quite interesting really. I saw someone put the History of poker, so I thought some might find this interesting.

My dad is a BIG poker fan, but he's not very savvy on the old internet.

What is the most user friendly site that you have used? I would really like to set him up so that he can start making us all some millions. 😄
